Alice and Jerry

Alice and Jerry was a basal reader educational series published and used in classrooms from the mid-1930s to the 1960s. The books sold nearly 100 million copies worldwide. This series competed at the time with the Dick and Jane educational series.

Both the Alice & Jerry series and the competing Dick & Jane series of textbooks were designed to be taught using the "Look and Say" method, rather than being taught using a Phonics-centric teaching method.

As of 2024, the series still is in print, but can be difficult to locate.
